Cómo preparar Crisp Fried Tofu With Avocado Salsa Watercress Salad
- **Make the Lime Dressing:** In a small saucepan, dissolve 1 tablespoon of sugar in 50ml of water over low heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of chili sauce and the juice of 1 lime. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and let cool completely. Refrigerate until ready to use (can be made ahead).
- **Prepare the Avocado Salsa:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 ripe avocado (diced), 1/2 red onion (finely chopped), 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1 jalapeño pepper (seeded and minced), and the juice of 1/2 lime. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and gently toss to coat. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- **Prepare the Tofu:** Toss 1 block (14oz) firm or extra-firm tofu, pressed and cubed, in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
- **Fry the Tofu:** Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt.
- **Assemble the Salad:** In a large bowl, toss 5 oz of watercress with the remaining salad ingredients (if any).
- **Plate the Dish:** Drizzle the lime dressing in a zigzag pattern onto a plate. Gently toss the watercress salad with the fried tofu and place it on the plate. Spoon a generous amount of avocado salsa onto the center of the plate, slightly flattening it to create a disc.
- **Serve Immediately:** Enjoy this delicious and healthy meal!
